flyguy737 28 Posted June 28, 2020 Share Posted June 28, 2020 Ok forgive me if this has been answered before but I know SSD is better then HHD however something I am not sure I understand that I hope you all can answer. P3Dv4 is installed on my SSD 1TB and P3Dv5 on my HDD. Now the question at hand. same settings on both same airport on both same scenery on both. Situation FPS locked at 40FPS on both. P3Dv4 on SSD FPS at test airport 40 easy P3Dv5 on HHD FPS at test airport 26-27. Same aircraft as well. so question is why the FPS is so low on P3Dv5? My guess is that it is because it's on HHD but can someone just confirm that this would be the reason before I uninstall it again. Colin Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jack the Swede in Spain 424 Posted June 28, 2020 Share Posted June 28, 2020 SSD has NO effect on fps what so ever it only speeds up the loading time of the sim. This forum and Internet is full of answers to that, just make a search. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Nick Cooper 7,070 Posted June 28, 2020 Share Posted June 28, 2020 Hello Colin, a better test would be the same simulator on both types of disk. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
